Great signing guys,this guy is a great Goal Keeper and he's much better in the air than Casillas so maybe when Casillas is back he could be used in certain games were dominating your area and coming for crosses is more important than been a great shot stopper?

Do you think he could even bench Casillas in the long run?

it depends worms. I mean mou has been fed up with iker as we saw when he wss benched for two straight games

lopez is good in the air and he could teach iker one thing or two about that. thats the only thing iker lacks atm

I feel much more confident now. lopez was always good against us and I wouldnt be surprised if he was great FOR us now. he loves the club so he will do his utmost to help us win trophies. he only has one and that with us as well

but what will happen when iker comes back? you cant have two goalies on yhe bench. poor adan

He'll definitely be on the bench tomorrow but he may not play in the Copa Del Rey since he's already played in the competition for Sevilla this season, in the that league matches he'll most likely rotate with Adan, but may start the Champions League fixtures against Manchester United if he puts in better performances than Adan.

are you sure that rule stands for CDR too? i thought it was only for european games

I'm not sure of that rule, that's why I used the word "may", further clarification may come later. I do know for a fact that in England he'd have been ineligible to play in a domestic cup competition if he had already feature for another club.

Diego is a great keeper, but Casillas is an icon. He is Madrid.... BUT let's say when Casillas recovers as long as Mourinho is coach I doubt he will start Casillas right away.It will take something on Diego's part to give that spot right back to Iker.
